Where is Yan when you need his skills.

Kadri has offensive talent. But Cooke plays with passion.

You sure know a lot about the Leafs

Are you one of Eks insider sources?

Your original post, again, you said that because a player has his head down, an opposing player is allowed to hit him in the head. You and many other Leaf fans have affirmed this multiple times. Granlund wasn't looking up, so it's okay to hit him in the head.

The NHL "secifically" say that the hit to the head was okay because his head was already there? Wut.

The head wasnt PPoC.

If the NHL suspended every hit that ended up hitting the head when the body was the PPoC, there would be no hitting.

What the hell is going on, people don't listen anymore, in one ear out the other.
- LeafMan

You say something?

No the NHL is saying it was a full body hit that did not target the head.

Pfft If it even makes it to the first ear

We are referring to past hits.He said the NHL says it's okay all the time...they don't. In fact, they generally say the opposite. I already know that the NHL is only looking at Kadri for the elbow to Backstrom.

What the hell is going on, people don't read anymore, in one eye out the other...

So no Kadri for the next two games...that sounds about right.
Well deserved suspension for him.
So most of our 2nd- 3rd centers are out.
nice.

Backstrom deserves a suspension. What was he thinking? Keeping his head there. He could have injured Kadri ffs

he started it. My wording actually did make it seem a bit ambiguous. So, I rescind. But the OP was specifically referring to past rulings.

If only we didnt spend over 5 million on a 2nd/3rd line winger....we would have cap space for a trade.
Nuts

Yes. Because money is the reason why we cant trade for a stop gap 3rd line center...
